Same board. Same cards.
Better decisions win.
Six head-to-head games played against another Payday player. Nothing is left to chance between you: identical conditions, same timer, higher score takes it.
Decks exist for the days the sporting calendar is thin. A Tuesday in July, an international break, the week between rounds — the board is quiet and you still want something to play.
What they are not is a game of chance dressed up as a contest. Every Decks match gives both players exactly the same starting position: the same layout, the same sequence, the same number of moves and the same clock. Whoever plays it better wins. That is the entire design.
The six games
Each one takes a few minutes and every match is played against a real opponent on the same board.
BlocksFit shapes, clear lines
Place shapes to clear lines and rack up points across 15 rounds. Your opponent gets the same map, the same bonus tiles and the same shapes in the same order.
SolitaireSame deck, six minutes
The classic, turned into a contest. Everyone in a competition gets an identical card sequence, so it comes down to the order you work it.
21 or BustFour columns, three minutes
Build columns that total exactly 21. No dealer and no randomness between opponents — same card order, same timer, same interface.
BlackjackEight rounds, same cards dealt
Your result is measured against a real player who was dealt exactly the same cards under the same rules. Win streaks build a bonus on top.
Royal JokerFive rounds, 38 cards
A five-round hand-building game on a custom deck with two wilds. Cards lock between rounds, so what you keep matters as much as what you play.
SpinsNudges decide it
You get a limited number of nudges to shift the grid across 15 turns. Both players face the same sequence with the same nudges — the score only goes up, so it is about where you spend them.
Questions about Decks
- What are Payday Decks?
- Head-to-head skill games played against another Payday player. Both players face identical conditions — the same board, the same cards, the same timer — and the higher score wins. There are six games: Blocks, Solitaire, 21 or Bust, Blackjack, Royal Joker and Spins.
- Do both players get the same board in Decks?
- Yes. Decks matches are built so nothing is left to chance between opponents: you and the player you are matched against get the same layout, the same sequence and the same time limit. The difference is what you do with it.
- Can I play Decks for free?
- Yes. Every Decks game has free practice alongside paid matches, so you can learn a game before playing it for anything.
